We stopped at Liz's mom's house on Thursday afternoon, and had dinner with her family. My dad and Gladys just gave up the snowbird routine, and moved to an assisted loving community in FL.
For those of you who have stuck with us through this trip, we hope you have experienced a sense of why we have come to love these trips. Each one develops a unique "theme" which has never been what we anticipated. We made it from the Cleveland area to Wilkes-Barre Pa today, and just finished dinner at Olive Garden.
We are staying at one of our routine places to park overnight. a WalMart parking lot. Sam Walton started the tradition of letting RV'ers spend a night tin his parking lots. Cracker Barrell does the same. Half a dozen of us here tonight. They are good for times like tonight when we got in about 7:00 PM had dinner and got to the lot at about 8:30. I've got generators in the back of the truck, so we've got power, and we, usually read or something for an hour, and go to bed. We're both reasonably sound sleepers, especially after a day of travel, so we aren't bothered by anything.
Tomorrow morning, we'll make coffee, and be on the road within an hour of getting up, sometimes much less. Just not worth finding a campground, driving to it, getting a site, setting up after dark, and tearing down in around 12 hours.
So thank you for following us, and particularly to those of you who wrote us back, with your comments. We talked about this method of communicating, and decided it has merits for the future simply as a means of documenting what we've done. If our friends enjoy it too - great!
If you have suggestions or comments about our trip don't hesitate to ask us, in person or by email. If you know of other bogs either inexpensive or free, such as this one, please let me know.
I'll wrap this trip up after I'm home.
See you later, maybe on the road!!
Liz and Bruce
